Real time clock synchronization on a peer to peer network

[stephen.berks]

We have a small peer to peer network which is not connected to the internet. We would like to use the real time clock on on of the PC as a time standard to synchronize all the other real time clocks on th eother PC on the network. Does anyone know how to do this?

Not sure if this is what your looking for put check out the following

I also think there is a Net Time DOS command and that may work as well if I understand your question correctly and it would be free

You can find info about it at http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/nettime.html

hope this helps

Cheers,

Net Time in a dos box works

Many thanks

I've used About Time (which is free), and found it very useful, keeping a peer networked in time synch for two years with zero maintenance and less than 5 minutes per machine to set up. It will also fetch the time off an internet time server. I've just checked to make sure that it is still available and still free.

For lots more information on time and timekeeping, have a look at
